9. It snows in Greenland an average of once every 25 days, and when it does, glaciers have a 20% chance of growing. When it does not snow in Greenland, glaciers have only a 4% chance of growing. What is the probability that it is snowing in Greenland when glaciers are growing? Use Bayes' Theorem to figure this out.
